Managed to stay on my feet.

Well this morning I set off a little nervous about running as on my last run I had fallen over and had cuts and bruises.

I had previously been off from running due to a back ache . So this morning I went out and managed to stay on my feet and did a huge 9 k.

It took me a hour but I am really giddy about it.

Glad you’re able to get back out again! (And that you didn’t fall over either!❤️)

Not sure what happened with your back, but I find regular Sports Therapy and Chiro helps keep mine moving. Sadly my upper back tends to lock up later on after the longer runs, so I need to recover before the next one! 😊❤️

Thank you. Not sure what happened with my back either. One minute I was ok next I was finding walking hard . So hard about ten days rest and then fell over but seems to be much better now . Thank you xx

Well done on your 9k! I am trying for that again today. New niggles seem to come with these longer distances.
